Reference Source of the Week
University of Okalahoma Libraries, Open Educational Resources
This is a good introduction to Open Educational Resources (OER) if you don't know much it yet.
The site provides a good description. It explains the "5 Rs" of Open (Retain,
Reuse, Revise, Remix, and Redistribute). There are also links to additional
reading, which helps answer the question: "Why OER?"
Want to know more? There are a couple of nice
videos, as well as a whole bunch of OER including links to may of the
OER collections beyond what is available at OU.
This blew me away...
"According to the Chronicle of
Higher Education, 7 in 10 students didn't
purchase a textbook because it was too expensive." -Content from University of Oklahoma Libraries
